The synthesis of palladium, platinum and ruthenium nanoparticles stabilized by azamacrocycles bearing polyoxyethylenated chains has been achieved by decomposition of the corresponding organometallic precursors (Pd(dba)(2), Pt(2)(dba)(3) and Ru(COD)(COT)) under dihydrogen atmosphere, whereas gold and rhodium nanoparticles have been obtained in the presence of these ligands by reduction of HAuCl(...

The heteroleptic, binuclear compounds [M2(GaCp*)3(PMe3)2] (M = Pd: 1a, Pt: 1b, Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) can be obtained if [Pd2(dvds)3] (dvds = 1,3-divinyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane) or [Pt(COD)2] (COD = cyclooctadiene) were treated with a 3 : 2 ratio of GaCp* and PMe3. A trinuclear complex [Pd3(GaCp*)3(PMe3)3] (2) was isolated from in situ prepared [Pd(PMe3)2Me2] and treatment wi...

Heck arylation of 2,3-dihydrofuran with iodobenzene was carried out in systems consisting of different palladium precursors (Pd2(dba)3, Pd(acac)2, PdCl2(cod), [PdCl(allyl)]2, PdCl2(PhCN)2, PdCl2(PPh3)2) and ionic liquids (CILs) with L-prolinate or L-lactate anions. All the tested CILs caused remarkable increases of the conversion values and in all of the reactions 2-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran (3) ...

A bidentate nitrogen-donor ligand with an appended phenol group, C5H4NCH[double bond, length as m-dash]N-2-C6H4OH, H(L1) was treated with a palladium cycloneophyl complex [Pd(CH2CMe2C6H4)(COD)], with both Pd-aryl and Pd-alkyl bonds, to give a Pd-alkyl complex, [Pd(CH2CMe2C6H5)(κ3-N,N',O-OC6H4N[double bond, length as m-dash]CH(2-C5H4N))], 1. The cleavage of the Pd-aryl bond and the deprotonation...

Two new chiral, enantiomerically pure, hybrid P-N ligands, namely (2R,5S)-2-phenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)-1,3-diaza-2-phosphanicyclo[3,3,0]octan-4-one (1) and (2R,5S)-2-phenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)-1,3-diaza-2-phosphanicyclo[3,3,0]octane (2), have been synthesized starting from L-proline. The two ligands differ in the presence or not of a carbonyl group in the diazaphosphane ring. Their coordination chemistry t...

A new imidazolium salt 3⋅HI with 8-Bodipy as one N-aryl substituent was synthesized from 8-chloro-Bodipy and imidazole followed by alkylation iPrI. NHC-metal complexes [CuCl(3)], [AuCl(3)], [Pd(allyl)Cl(3)] [MCl(cod)(3)] [MCl(CO)2(3)] (M=Rh, Ir) were the X-ray crystal structure of [IrCl(CO)2(3)] determined. The donation NHC 3 determined via IR (ν(CO) cyclic voltammetry (Ir(I/II) redox potential...

Coordination studies of new lutidine-derived hybrid NHC/phosphine ligands (CNP) to Pd and Ir have been performed. Treatment of the square-planar [Pd(CNP)Cl](AgCl2) complex 2a with KHMDS produces the selective deprotonation at the CH2P arm of the pincer to yield the pyridine-dearomatised complex 3a. A series of cationic [Ir(CNP)(cod)]+ complexes 4 has been prepared by reaction of the imidazolium...

Abstract: The anionic polymerization of 1-phosphaisoprene [Mes*P=C(Me)−CH=CH2 (E-1)] affords poly(1-phosphaisoprene) 2 in high yield (75%). Concentrated solutions polymer (Mn = 21,800 g mol–1; Đ 1.02) a P-analogue natural rubber, undergo gelation upon treatment with [Pd(cod)Cl2] (0.15 P equiv). Evidence for P-coordination to PdII was obtained by 31P and 1H NMR spectroscopy. is reversed the addi...

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a type of neurodegenerative diseases. PD influences gait in many aspects: reduced speed and step length, increased axial rigidity, impaired rhythmicity. Gait-related data used this study are from PhysioNet. Twenty-one patients five healthy controls (CO) were sorted into four groups: without task (PDw), with dual (PDd), control (COw), (COd). Since actions attention de...
